My husband and I went to a fundraiser for Second Harvest Food Bank in Nashville in 2002. I bid on a silent auction item for several gift certificates for childrens clothing stores. When I went to the Children's Corner to redeem my certificate for an outfit for my newborn girl, I found that it was a sewing shop instead of children's clothes. I did not even know how to sew a button on my husband's shirt. Looking around the shop at the darling clothes and beautiful fabrics, I became hooked. I signed up for a class in beginner sewing and a class in smocking. For Christmas I asked for a sewing machine. You can imagine the rest of the story. Now I am overrun with fabric and patterns. The Children's Corner is simply the best-the people and the patterns. I really enj0oyed the dress you made.

I love it! My daughter has an older look about her in her face, so I really want her to wear clothes that are younger--also braids help too! My daughter is also 7, but I think she might be taller than Daisy.. hard to tell.

Photography

Photography is an important part of life at my house. Photos that appear here are taken by Giles, by the Composer, and by me. Giles is a real, paid photographer, and he uses a Sony Alpha. Most of the photography prior to September 2008 is his. Since then I have done most of the shooting and I use a Konica Minolta. Additionally, the Composer offers me nice shots on occasion, often from his little Canon point and shoot. I've given up trying to note who's done what. Thanks for your interest!
